Samsung LN-T4061F 40" LCD TV

Great for first year and a half

Strengths: Great picture, lots of extras, easy to use

Weakness: None except for not so great speakers

Up to this point, I was very pleased with my Samsung LN-T4061F TV. However, I am now having two problems with it. The TV used to take 5 seconds to come on after the power button was pressed. Now it takes up 2 minutes. Also, there are pink dots all over the screen, showing up mostly in areas of black. Through searching online for a solution, I find that many others have had these same problems....

Awesome Picture Easy To See Why Top Rated

Strengths: 1. Picture was great without the HD cable hookup. 2. Now have HD and the picture is awesome! 3. Easy setup 4. Great looking unit

Weakness: 1. The manual is intimidating (but you really don't need it) 2. Onboard Sound is adequate (doesn't match quality of picture) 3. Channel change slower than desired

There are a lot of 40" TVs out there right now. I focused on this one after a top rating in Consumer Reports and on comments in PriceGrabber reviews. Thanks to PriceGrabber I was able to save an additional $300! The set is as good as everyone says it is. Ignore the thick manual and just use it as a reference. I just hooked everything up, turned the set on, followed the onscreen prompts, and the...

Finally, LCD Television that looks great

Strengths: Bright, colorful, sharp picture; Tons of connectivity; Unintrusive design; excellent video processing; not-too expensive.

Weakness: On-board speakers leave a little room for improvement, totally useable but nothing to brag about

I've been shopping for a wide screen HDTV for about 4 YEARS at this point. To my eyes, just about every model on the market before 2006 had serious image problems related to the technology of the day. I won't bore you with all the technical shortfalls of projection tv's (LCD or DLP), plasma, or earlier LCD direct view, but I've tried them all and returned them all. The new Samsung model has...

Looks terrifc and Pic is out of this world.

Strengths: Amazing picture even on "air channels", much improved over my 3 year old Panasonic and HD is just incredible.

Weakness: Captioning when you go to "Mute" has to be a separate operation. Not automatic. Instructions are difficult when trying to hook-up DirecTV. Took many trials and call to Samsung....which didn't help

Now I'm not a technofile, but I am a big TV watcher and this set is so much an improvement over others I watched prior to this purchase. Like another said, I watch programs I don't normally watch just because the HD is so good. Setting up was easy except for what was mentioned in the Weaknesses portion above. So many options, so much fun.

awesome

Strengths: Brilliant picture, unbelievable clarity, perfect size and lots of inputs

Weakness: none found yet

This is my first HDTV so I'm somewhat novice when it comes to looking at other sets. Although I looked at several other sets before I chose this one but settled on the Samsung because of the quality reputation and the fact it fits perfectly into my existing TV cabinet. Since the speakers are on the bottom of the set I was able to get 40" instead of 37" into the space. The 3" makes a big...

Samsung 40

Strengths: Compact design, Excellent pictue quality, excelllent designed remote.

Weakness: Remote does not have lighted keys. Cabinet is shiney with significate reflections.

A GREAT TV for the dollar. Samsung has designed and produced a fine TV. The picture quality is excellent with analog and High definition signal. Sound quality is good to excellent. It has a wide angle of picture side vision. It is a very compant design for a TV of this size. Instructions are excellent with simple set-up.

Can't go wrong with this one

Strengths: Excellent picture, lots of plugs for outside devices, swivel base, great price.

Weakness: None that I know of.

Once I hooked it up to the HD cable box. TV changed in my house forever. Great picture. I have a Samsung HD DVD player, Apple computer screen, HD cable box, digital camera, and digital camcorder connected to the TV. All work great. Found some HDMI cables online for an excellent price and they work great also. I was going to buy a Sony but after comparing the specs the Samsung beat it hands down....

Who is buying Sony?

Strengths: Excellent contrast compared to many other brands. This not only affects black but the overall colors. With 1080p contents the image quality is just fabulous and significantly better than with 720p.

Weakness: Belly button on/off switch looks retarded.

This tv has exceeded my expectations in every way. Picture quality is out of this world with HD contents. You would swear you can touch the people when playing 1080p content. When compared side by side with Sony's XBR this tv is equal if not better than the Sony's but at hundreds less. I would prefer the 65 series with it's higher contrast ratio but for $200 less I decided on this set instead and...

Beautiful LCD HDTV, Inside & Out!

Strengths: Great 1080p picture. Piano black from lines all sides of the TV, including stand and rear. Numerous HD Input options. Swivel Stand. Hidden Speakers help to minimize the frame around the screen.

Weakness: NONE.

I have been researching this model alone for several months now (returned a 1-month old Sharp Aquos to have this TV) And almost decided against it due to a lot of negative feedback out there, but my TV has none of these reported problems, and the sound is great (I think it sounds better than the 37" Aquos I had) Gaming has no lag (the aquos had a 6ms response time, and I notice no difference).

amazing tv for the price

Strengths: easy setup, great picture, great price

Weakness: sound is not as i would want, but it isn't that bad.

This lcd is a great television, the picture is just amazing,and enjoy the many hdmi ports. The only thing that i am having problems so far with is hooking up the dvi (laptop), but maybe i am just playing around it just wrong. But everything on the tv is just plug and watch. The sound is average, it is not as bad as people say, but to tell the truth, if you are planning on going home theater...
